陀羅尼雜集 1.6

1.6

The power of this dhāraṇī can subdue all: moving mountains and halting rivers, drying up the great ocean, and crushing all mountains into fine dust. If the sun and moon lose their course, it can make them travel correctly, and it can avert all calamities. If wind and rain miss their proper season, it can bring them in season. If grain does not ripen, it can bring an abundant harvest. If neighbouring countries invade the borders, it can repel them all. If great ministers plot rebellion, their evil intentions will instantly be extinguished. If an age of pestilence arises, it can avert it. If pestilential demons enter the country, it can drive them away. If an age of weapons arises, it can destroy it. The power of this dhāraṇī to avert calamities and dispel anomalies is immeasurable and boundless. Were one to explain it extensively, an eon would end before it could be exhausted.
